Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a study of ancient Greek systems of measurement and the theories behind them, as used more than two thousand years ago in mathematics, geodesy, and public finance. The author brings together a large number of fragments and explores the interrelationships between them, supplementing this with evidence from epigraphic materials and literary sources. Such an approach allows for a comprehensive insight into the development of different measurement systems and their role in various fields of practical knowledge. The author's detailed analysis reveals how the interplay between geometry, theory, and practical application prevalent in ancient systems can promote new ideas in fields such as engineering and spatial design today.
